I thought this would a great way to love dogs. Im reliable, very active and spend a lot of time outdoors. I’ll treat your pup as my own and will spoil them with love.

I love to be outside so the more time I can spend outdoors the better and will love to play and entertain your pet with toys and chasing.
“Savannah took care of my cat Chibi for 2 days while I was away. Chibi seems to enjoy her company a lot when she visited—she played with her and seems very affectionate with her as well which is so nice and assuring for me since I know my fur baby is in good hands. I highly recommend Savannah :)”


About: Hi there! As to experience with dogs, I have brought all three of our family dogs home- my chihuahua Blueberry, my Maltipoo Teddy who I taught how to do obstacle courses such as jump through hoops, run through poles, go through tunnels, ect. And lastly, I got my very own miniature Aussiedoodle puppy this past year named Kova who’s about 11 months old now. I have 4 years of experience dog sitting my family, friends, and people on Nextdoor throughout all 4 years of high school from tiny to large dogs. I can also help teach them tricks! I live in an apartment close to University of Miami campus where I live with a few other girls and we have my puppy & my roomates Pomeranian living with us. I’m looking to pet sit, do walks, and check in’s since I love animals and have a bit more free time this year! I also have a car so I am able to drive to pickup and drop off! I promise I will treat your furry friends like my own with the utmost care & love! I’m currently a Junior at the University of Miami. My only priorities are my classes but besides my class time, I am completely available to take care of your pups! Due to my class schedule: • I am available Monday anytime besides 3:30-5pm. • I am available Tuesday anytime besides 2pm-6:30pm. • I am available Wednesday anytime besides 2pm-8pm. • I am available Thursday anytime besides 2pm-3:30pm and 5pm-9pm. • I am completely available Friday, Saturday, and Sunday but contact me 3 days in advance for weekends to make sure I am completely available. I live in a townhouse style apartment with 4 other super sweet girls and we have 2 pups living with us to keep your dog company! I have my own puppy Kova who is a miniature Aussiedoodle girl and we have a miniature Pomeranian boy named Gio. We don’t have much of a backyard but I walk my own puppy about 4x a day through the grassy front yard and to the dog park in our complex. There are also multiple parks around the area that I love to take her to that I can walk your dog at as well! My pup no longer needs her crate but I have a crate that I can set up ahead of time if needed!
“Gabriela took such great care of our kitty, Stella! She was very patient with her because she can be shy at first, and spent time playing with her and making sure she had company while we were away. Would definitely book again!”

“Theresa is great! I have booked her twice for dog walking services at the last minute and she quickly responded and communicated with me. She arrived on time both occasions and took wonderful care of my two pups who love her!! She is super trustworthy and I will continue to book with her!”

About: I have experience with many different size and age dogs, since I have a big dog family at home. This comes with a lot of training as well. I’m very active, so I love to go on walks and runs with my dogs. I am a student, but my schedule is mostly flexible. I do spend some time at home and the time I’m not home, I’m in class. The weekends are free for me. I live in a pet-loving home, so there is no stress having a guest over! Dogs can be in their cage or if it is more comfortable to be without a cage that is perfectly fine as well. I also have the option of boarding or day care without my dogs.

About: Hi there! I'm Alexis. What's my favorite thing about dogs you ask? Well, I find delight in how loving they are, how sweet they are, how they love you unconditionally and are the best cuddle buddies. The best part about being a sitter with RoverGO is getting to meet, take care of, and have fun with so many different dogs and/or cats! I'm offering traveling pet care services through Rover that allow for your pet(s) to keep their daily routine and their environment the same while you are away. I can stop by your home for drop-ins or walks, as well as, stay overnight if your pet(s) need company all throughout the day. My schedule is open and as long as I get your request, and we are a good match, I'm confident I will be your go-to pet sitter! I have had 7 dogs throughout my life including my two current pups. I come from a dog loving family. We have been taking care of dogs since I was just a young child. I will take care of your dog like they are my own. House sitting requires a level of trust and responsibility that I know how to emit. I will leave your home just as it was when you left! Send me a request! I'd be honored to meet you and your beloved pet(s). Forging a genuine relationship with you as your next pet sitter is something I pride myself on! Let's meet in person soon.
“Gaby is absolutely the best. Not only does she take great care of our cats…feeds them, cleans their litter, refills their water bowls and plays with them…but she also leaves everything cleaned up!”


About: I have cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities since I was 13 years old. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me to care for, feed, walk, and play with their pets. I am responsible, patient, and caring, and I always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. 🐾 About Sara I have a flexible schedule and availability to care for pets during the week and on weekends. I can dedicate time to walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship while adapting to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and daily routines. I also keep in regular communication so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.
About: Medication can be administered. There's a large backyard where dogs can play, walk, and play with each other. Safety and trust. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room for your pet to play. I dedicate 100% of my time to my pets. When they're in my care, I play with them and walk them. During your pet's stay in my care, we'll play games and take them for walks around my community. Most of the day they're inside the air-conditioned house. I take them out to the grass every two hours to relieve themselves. My name is Yoleida. I offer my services to care for your pets day and night, giving them walks and pet sitting at your home. I've been pet sitting for a year and I love this job, taking care of dogs and cats. I'm available every day of the week to care for your pets from my home.
About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was six. After his passing I knew I wanted to help more dogs out so I started volunteering at my local animal shelter. I enjoy letting them have time outside of their kennel. I’m currently working part-time so I’ll have time to care for your dogs! I’m usually free towards the afternoon and on the weekends! With my experience at volunteering at an animal shelter I’ve had the opportunity to work with both cats and dogs! Most shelter dogs are extremely excited to get out of their kennel which has allowed me to calm them down that way I ensure they are let safely out.

“Carolyn truly loves what she does. She is gentle and kind with my senior doggie. I am relieved to find someone so trustworthy, responsible, reliable, and warm to help provide the extra care my little guy requires.”


About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was born. My soul dog, Max, was a senior chihuahua who required around-the-clock care. Because of him, I know how to take care of pets in their golden years. I’ve aided in the rescue and rehabilitation of multiple dogs of all ages, breeds, and sizes. I’m now the mom to a beautiful rescue named Magnolia who has taught me so much about, not just dogs, but myself. She is the opposite of Max (who loved to snuggle and sleep), and now I’m hiking and running with my girlfriend and Maggie nearly every day. I love dogs, I understand their language and needs, and I’d be so happy to take care of yours. (I also have extensive knowledge and care of aquatic animals). I am completely available and down to hang with your pet at a moment’s notice. I’m flexible, friendly, responsible and chill! I love being active but am also down to just hang out with your pet and make sure they’re taken care of. Living in an apartment with two cats and one dog (each having their own quirks; including one cat who cannot have any plastic around because he will eat it), I am aware of surroundings and am not negligent ever when it comes to living beings.

About: I've always loved dogs and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. As a dog owner myself, I care for my Schnauzer, Benji, every day and know that every dog has their own personality and needs. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and affection while following each owner's routine as closely as possible. I believe in keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages so they know their furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, loved, and treated like part of my own family I work full-time, but I carefully schedule my bookings to ensure every pet receives the time, attention, and care they deserve. During visits, I focus on walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of affection. I keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their furry family member is happy and well cared for. I strive to be reliable, flexible, and responsive when arranging care. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog's routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. I carefully monitor pets during walks and playtime, keep fresh water available, and make sure they are always secure. I respect every owner's preferences and will provide regular updates with photos and messages throughout the stay or visit. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet feels comfortable and cared for.

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals ever since I was 9 years old, and over the last 6 years, I’ve had the joy of turning that passion into my full-time work! I have extensive experience with dogs and cats of all breeds, personalities, and needs. I can comfortably host multiple pets at once, but if your pup or kitty needs one-on-one attention, private boarding is also available upon request Pet care is my full-time profession, and I’ve been lovingly caring for other people's pets for over 15 years! Because this is my primary focus, my schedule is completely flexible, reliable, and dedicated to giving your pet the attention and structure they need every single day Your pet’s safety and comfort come first! I live in a house with a secure, fully fenced yard for outdoor playtime. Inside, dogs have full free-roam access to relax, though I also have a large crate available if your pet prefers a crate routine
About: Hello, thank you for taking an interest in boarding your pet with me at a Dog’s Dream Vacation provided by a dog lover. I love dogs and I am a borderline dog whisperer. When your pet stays with me, they are getting a vacation of their own. When you travel or go on vacation, they get to have a getaway of their own. If using the Rover App, scroll through the top picture to see the photo gallery of dogs having fun and enjoying their vacation. If on the desktop website, click on full gallery photos. Rover is definitely better than boarding your pet at a dog hotel, especially if they are anxious pets. It is like Air BnB for your pet. : ) I live on a small peaceful lake with a big, fenced backyard. There is usually a nice breeze. I have a big open space home and a large backyard, plus a pool. Pets can go in the pool. I know golden retrievers and Labradors can’t resist, so please let me know if your dog may attempt to go in and if you prefer that they don’t. The lake is closed off, not connected to other lakes or canals (very safe) but still I do not allow pets in the lake as there is bacteria. We have a very old cat, he is 15 years old and most dogs get along with him, even if they have never been around a cat. I sadly hate to update my profile, and it took me a few months to do so because of grief. We had a cute, playful, friendly Labrador. His name was Chance and he died of a hemangiosarcoma tumor on his liver and spleen. Apparently, labs and retrievers can get this. Unfortunately, nobody knows exactly what causes hemangiosarcoma in dogs. It is one of the most studied canine cancers, but there is no single proven cause. Researchers believe it results from a combination of: genetics, age, or random DNA mutations. The last few pictures were of me and Chance having fun. Our prices are in line with the market rate (and cheaper than a dog hotel) but in my home, your dog is getting a vacation, eventually a playmate once we get another dog. I prefer dogs that are potty trained. I also prefer friendly breeds. Please bring your dog’s bed, food and 2 poop bags per day. Also bring their crate if crate trained (this is in case only if I have more than 2 dogs during busy holiday season AND only if they are used to their home crate). It also helps some dogs feel at home and have their own scent. Be sure they are bathed and clean as they tend to lay on our rugs. I prefer they do not go on furniture but it’s ok if they do (Chance used to lay on the couch all the time). I am available weekends and/or holidays. I can also provide dog walks in Brickell during the weekday. On some occasions I can do a dog visit but it depends on day and location. Please let me know if you need more information or have any questions. I work full time but work from home 2 days out of the week. I keep dogs on a feeding schedule along with back yard play time and potty time. They basically do the same routine and schedule as Chance. I have a fenced in yard and one dog to keep your fur baby happy and in good company. I can crate your dog if needed or if you prefer. Please bring their crate if crate trained and sleep or are used to going in and out of their "home'. Sometimes it helps them having their scent.

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for animals. Throughout my pet-sitting journey, I’ve had the pleasure of caring not only for furry four-legged friends, but also barn animals, reptiles, rodents, and aquatic pets. I am a reliable, communicative, loving, and attentive sitter who provides not just the experience your pet needs, but also the love, care, and peace of mind every pet parent deserves. Pet sitting is my full-time profession, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care and flexible scheduling. I intentionally limit the number of bookings I accept to ensure each pet receives my full attention, so early reservations are recommended. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions exactly as provided. I maintain a clean, secure environment and closely monitor behavior to ensure comfort and well-being. I provide regular updates with photos and detailed communication so you feel confident and informed while you’re away.
About: I’ve raised a Pomeranian and currently have a 4-year-old cockapoo, so I truly understand small dog personalities and needs. I've trained both the dogs myself to sit, paw, spin, and lay so I’m comfortable reading behavior and reinforcing positive habits. Hello! I am available to drop ins on weekends at anytime! I can dog walk/dog sit/cat sit anytime after 4:30pm on weekdays including late at night! As a dog owner who has raised and trained two puppies, I understand body language, proper leash handling, and how to prevent unsafe situations. In a client’s home, I am respectful of routines and follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, crate use, and training consistency. I make sure doors and gates are always secured and I never leave pets unattended in unsafe environments.
The median cost per visit for dog sitting in West Miami is $22
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Miami
While we were away in Europe for ten days, Alejandra cared for Poppy, our little puppy who needs extra attention and training, and she was amazing. She followed every instruction carefully, stayed in touch with frequent check-ins pictures and videos, and was always available when we needed her. She was proactive, too, letting us know when food or treats were running low. Having Alejandra looking after Poppy gave us total peace of mind, she was reliable, attentive, and genuinely sweet with poppy.

Nadia is terrific and we will be happy to work with her again. Our dog is very sensitive and timid, but he warmed up to Nadia right away because she is kind, caring, patient, and loves dogs. Nadia sent us helpful updates and photos and is superb at communicating. Thank you!!

I couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for Bella while I was away! She came by for drop-in visits exactly as scheduled and made sure Bella was well taken care of every time. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. It was clear that Bella was happy, comfortable, and getting lots of love and attention during each visit. I truly appreciated her reliability, communication, and genuine care for my dog. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!

Alia was very communicative and loving towards our older dog with special needs. She made sure to make him comfortable, have fun outside and even kept him company with her own pet. We were so grateful to know and see he was in great hands. She would send a daily message of their time together along with pictures/videos. I highly recommend booking Alia for your pet sitting needs.
Andrea was great with our little Bogey! Always checked in and gave me updates and even started helping keep up with his training (sit, paw, down, and ringing the bells to go potty outside). I appreciated Andrea’s help and will definitely use her again! Highly recommend and will definitely use again soon

Courtney has been the best to work with. She is extremely helpful and is always helping us out with Bear. I also love how attentive she is with my dog. I am always receiving many updates and messages from her! Bear is always so happy after visiting with Courtney, and is always excited to see her. Highly recommend her watching anyone’s animal!

Gabriela was everything I look for in a sitter and more! My dog can take some time to warm up to people but Gaby made it so easy for her to be comfortable! I appreciated the thorough visit summaries and photos that were sent, it put me at ease so I had no worried while being away!

Kristel was absolutely wonderful with my dog Pepper! Pepper can be quite stubborn and is usually hesitant around new people, but Kristel’s patience and genuine care completely won her over. From the very beginning, Kristel showered Pepper with love and attention, taking time to let her warm up and always making sure she felt comfortable. I received regular updates and adorable photos, and it was clear that Pepper was relaxed, happy, and truly in the best hands. When I returned home, Pepper was her usual cheerful self, maybe even a bit better behaved! I’m so grateful for Kristel’s dedication and kindness. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for your pup as much as you do! Thank you, Kristel, for taking such amazing care of Pepper!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in West Miami is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in West Miami choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.
